Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 c shortening
1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1 egg
1/2 c sour cream
1 1/2 tsp real vanilla extract
3 c semi-sweet chocolate chips(divided)
1 3/4 c all purpose flour
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 c chopped walnuts or pecans

  • 1. Cream together the shortening with the brown sugar.
  • 2. Mix into the creamed mixture the egg, sour cream, and vanilla.
  • 3. Melt HALF(1 1/2 cups) of the chocolate chips in the microwave (in 20 second intervals, stirring in between, until almost melted, then stop. It will continue melting) Add to the creamed mixture.
  • 4. In separate bowl, mix flour, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Add to the creamed mixture, stirring until smooth.
  • 5. Fold in nuts and remaining(1 1/2 cups) chocolate chips (or can substitute peanut butter chips instead). Chill dough for about 1/2 hour.
  • 6. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place heaping tsps of dough on greased cookie sheets and bake for 10-12 mins, or just until set up. Do not overbake, cookies will still be a bit soft because of all the chocolate. Let cool for a few mins on the cookie sheet before placing on cooling racks.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the cookies will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature. This will help the cookies develop a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the cookies to set.
